Oh don't be crazy hasney.

Hot take replaying it six years later: Vanquish has more down-time and annoying sections/interruptions than Bayonetta does with its Space Harrier section. And the entire story is stupid as fuck, even for a Platinum game. It's not dumb, it's just stupid. Also the music sucks.
I didn't remember it being this way.
Animations are still dope though.

I feel it's long enough to have a pretty definitive opinion now.
Abby is pretty damn cool, Ben is pretty damn meh.
East is still the true GB.

Haha, I actually complained about this when I played it at launch. It was really odd and didn't fit the rest of the game. Couldn't tell if it was hiding load times or they were doing a parody of those talking sections in Gears of War. Cuz some of it felt like parody of big American shooters of the time where they forced you to do the talk/walk.
The first-person stuff must be loading, considering the stuttering that happens. Even aside from that there's a ton of running around hallways and grey concrete. My memory of this game was crazy rocket gymnastics and slow-mo but I feel like I spent a third of the game just hanging around in a neutral grey space with a bunch of marines who curse a lot.

I've been feeling the exact opposite. In my opinion Ben has been way more engaging.

People tend to only remember the good times as memory fades away.

I'll say though he feels a lot more natural in the bombcast now. This week's was pretty good.

You should've known it was gonna be bad.
Look if you want to kill brain cells just use alcohol like the rest of the developed world.
yep it's really irritating.
the story does end with a hillary clinton analogue being exposed for colluding with the russians though which is kind of bizarre
You don't just do quick science all willy-nilly. Science takes time, data, peer reviews. This isn't seome school project, this is serious.
1. Nitroplus Blasterz: Heroines Infinite Duel
2. Mortal Kombat 2
3 - 1048. Who gives a fuck
She threatened the group that performed the coup in Russia, so shit was gonna go down regardless; she just didn't expect Darpa Man to be a bad enough dude to prevent war.
I'm not gonna say it doesn't go somewhere weird, but there's an inciting event at the start of the game, and then there's a twist at the end that everyone saw already, and that's kind of it.
How about Kenny Omega playing Akuma in a Bullet Club shirt? https://youtu.be/OdFf7WoZcBY?t=1m16s
I mean if anyone ever asks what the best TNT's are this video is recommended 100% of the time

Oh, is the New Japan stuff preorder only?
Nah, just in the game. Not mentioned on the pre-order notes anyway.

Abby isn't really in a lot of content and doesn't talk much on the Beastcast. That's fine, that's not her job. She's a producer, not an editor.
Comparing her to Ben is rather silly. She's a Whiskey Media era Drew.

Yeah and Ben has had experience talking about video games while being recorded. Abby is totally new to that, which showed on that old man quick look with a few awkward pauses here and there. But if it's something she wants to do, it'll come in time.
I think she's a good addition to Beastcast because she talks only when she has something to say. She doesn't interrupt the flow at all. Also, she has a nice voice.
Ben took a lil longer to get used to his voice but I think he's fine on Bombcast now. I think he adds quite alot to the conversations which is pretty important to keep the flow going.

Yeah, but who asks that in 2017?
Agreed.

I like Ben in and of himself, but he's really been valuable in coaxing Jeff out of his shell a little more. The Bombcast was a great listen with the pair of them bouncing off each other.
